Wow look at those colours! That is one fiery flower! I love the way you have composed this, not afraid to crop some of the petals. The clarity and colours are stunning and the only slight doubts i have are that the contrast seems ever so slightly oveworked. However, whether i am imagining this or not it is still one fantastic shot!

If I knew That you had posted a sunflower I would have kept mine back because I cannot compete with you Cornelius. Lovely and colourful flower well captured my friend.
Cornelius - There a so many varieties of sunflowers - with varied sizes and color combinations. This one looks to be a blaze, with more flames soon to shoot from the seed cone. Well presented, as always, my friend. Thad
Looks like a new editing technique for you Sea. It looks good. I feel we are going to have a good day with this lucky charm staring at us. Good health to you and yours.
People aren't going to remember the things you do. They're going to remember how you made people feel. Be kind, gracious, and appreciative. Dan Winters - Photographer.
